40: He defended Jinyun City

In the pitch-black cave.

The atmosphere was somewhat stiff and heavy.

Cai Zuo, who had been a steward for a long time, hadn't encountered such a tricky situation in ages.

"He's dead again!"

In the darkness, his face was grim, his fists clenched, and his brows furrowed tightly.

He had never expected that the second Bounty Hunter would not survive a single night after entering Jin Yun City.

"Could it be that this Night Watch who refuses to reveal his name truly has the ability to see through our disguises?"

Although he found it incredibly absurd.

But with the death of the second Bounty Hunter, this point had basically been verified.

Yet, he still found it somewhat unbelievable.

After all, since their Senluo Organization was founded, the assassinations carried out by Bounty Hunters in Seven Stars Province had almost always been successful.

No one had ever been able to see through their disguises.

This made it very difficult for him to believe that someone could actually achieve this.

"How exactly did this person do it?"

Cai Zuo felt a surge of irritation.

He had initially thought that the Night Watch Division was deliberately trying to scare them.

He never expected that this Night Watch who refused to reveal his name actually had the capability to kill them.

"No matter what, Jin Yun City… we can't go there anymore!"

He sighed, making the decision reluctantly.

At this moment, the group of Bounty Hunters gathered in the cave were also discussing the matter.

"I don't believe this Night Watch can see through our disguises; this must be a coincidence!"

A few Bounty Hunters were quite stubborn.

They believed that with their powerful disguise abilities, it was impossible for them to be seen through.

It must have been caused by other factors.

"Once is a coincidence, but twice is also a coincidence?"

Some more clear-headed Bounty Hunters knew that two kills by the opponent couldn't be a coincidence.

"Regardless of whether this Night Watch who refuses to reveal his name can truly see through our disguises, this person has already posed a certain threat to us Bounty Hunters. I believe… our top priority is to find a way to eliminate this Night Watch!"

"This kind of person must be killed as soon as possible, otherwise, the troubles will be endless!"

A tall Bounty Hunter offered a suggestion.

"You mean, continue to go to Jin Yun City to assassinate?"

Another Bounty Hunter in the shadows asked in confusion.

"Unsuitable."

Cai Zuo immediately rejected it.

"If the opponent can truly see through our disguises, going there is just suicide! Moreover, we still don't know who this Night Watch who refuses to reveal his name is, and the hidden agents in Jin Yun City have no clues at all. How can we kill him?"

"I have a way to find him."

The tall Bounty Hunter said.

"Based on the information reported by the hidden agents, it can be inferred that this person is not in the Qi Martial Realm. If he were in the Qi Martial Realm, Di Jin and the other person would not have died in such a manner."

The other Night Watch members nodded.

This point could indeed be confirmed.

Those in the Qi Martial Realm do not need to get close to kill those in the Entering Martial Realm.

However, Di Jin and the other person were both killed in close combat.

"Since he is not in the Qi Martial Realm, then it's not impossible for us to find him."

"I just need to act as bait… and there will be a chance to lure him out!"

The tall Bounty Hunter stated with conviction.

"You mean…"

Cai Zuo frowned, vaguely understanding the other person's idea.

"Two Bounty Hunters enter Jin Yun City together. One is responsible for luring out this mysterious Night Watch, while the other hides in the shadows, secretly confirming the identity of this Night Watch. As soon as this Night Watch makes a move, his identity will definitely be exposed!"

The tall Bounty Hunter said.

"I am confident in being the bait. Among you, only one needs to hide in the shadows to confirm the identity of this Night Watch."

Cai Zuo fell into deep thought about this.

It must be said that this method indeed had a certain feasibility.

One person acts as bait, while another hides in the shadows to observe.

As long as they could find out who this Night Watch who refuses to reveal his name is… then they could continuously arrange for people to carry out assassinations later.

They could even send Bounty Hunters in the Qi Martial Realm to kill him!

Such a person, capable of seeing through their disguises, must not be allowed to exist.

"It's worth a try!"

After some deliberation.

Cai Zuo approved the plan.

Regarding the personnel, in addition to the tall Bounty Hunter who proposed the plan, the other was a Bounty Hunter skilled in stealth.

Both were at the Entering Martial Realm Ninth Level!

...Jin Yun City.

Early in the morning, Xiao Shi, who was patrolling the streets, heard exclamations all around him.

"I heard another Bounty Hunter was killed last night!!"

"Still by that Night Watch who refuses to reveal his name!"

"So strong! This Night Watch who refuses to reveal his name is truly too strong! He's simply the bane of these Bounty Hunters!"

"I really want to know who he is!"

"Unfortunately, this Night Watch is too low-key and consistently refuses to reveal his name."

"After his series of killings, I wonder which Bounty Hunter would still dare to come to Jin Yun City!"

Not only were the common people in Jin Yun City discussing it heatedly.

All the Night Watch members were also discussing this matter intensely.

When these Night Watch members talked about this mysterious strong individual who refused to reveal his name, their eyes gleamed with admiration.

Towards Bounty Hunters… they harbored intense apprehension and disgust in their hearts.

Although Bounty Hunters primarily hunted geniuses and powerful individuals.

They also threatened their lives.

Moreover, Bounty Hunters were elusive and appeared and disappeared like ghosts, making them difficult to guard against.

This made them feel like they were the prey when facing Bounty Hunters.

However, now this Night Watch who refused to reveal his name had turned the hunting hunter into his prey.

There was nothing more satisfying than this.

This made many Night Watch members feel a sense of relief.

They admired this Night Watch who refused to reveal his name even more.

At the same time.

They all breathed a sigh of relief.

They felt that with this Night Watch who refused to reveal his name present, those Bounty Hunters would surely not dare to cause trouble in Jin Yun City again.

This also greatly guaranteed their safety.

No longer did they have to worry about Bounty Hunters committing murders within Jin Yun City.

"He protected Jin Yun City!"

The young man who often patrolled with Xiao Shi said with a moved expression.

Xiao Shi's eye twitched uncontrollably… I'm really not as great as you imagine.

Xiao Shi thought to himself.

At the same time, he also became troubled.

Judging by the current situation, it seemed unlikely that any more fish would dare to come.

This meant it would be difficult to find suitable targets to kill before he broke through to the Entering Martial Realm Ninth Level.

It was a pity that these two kills did not drop any items that could accelerate his breakthrough.

Breaking through to the Entering Martial Realm Ninth Level still required some time.

Although he felt that these Bounty Hunters might not dare to come anymore.

Xiao Shi still insisted on occasionally using the Enemy Detection Talisman to investigate.

Perhaps these Bounty Hunters would be stubborn and not believe in evil…
